Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Japan gets underway.
  • 5' - It’s high time Luis Suarez made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' - Costa Rica is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 20' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Yuto Nagatomo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 30' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
  • 35' - Brandon Aguilera has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 40' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Daniel Chacon made 7 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 51' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Costa Rica needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 56' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Costa Rica that had 7 games and scored 5 goals.
